REID BRIGNAC RUMORS & GOSSIP

The Phillies made a roster move Saturday, calling up infielder Freddy Galvis, and designating Reid Brignac for assignment.
Galvis, who hasn’t appeared in a game for the Phillies since May 8, was hitting .267/.322/.452 for the Lehigh Valley IronPigs. After being optioned to triple-A Lehigh Valley (he had just two hits in 42 ABs for the Phils) back in May, he broke his collarbone...

Can Brignac be more than a nice bench piece in Philadelphia?
Who, or what, is Reid Brignac was a question I had posed to me Wednesday night after Brignac’s ninth inning, walk-off homer to send the last-place Padres, well, further into last place in the NL West. Brignac used his magic once again yesterday, hitting a two-run, pinch-hit sixth inning double to put the Phils ahead for...

According to the Elias Sports Bureau, infielder Reid Brignac has accomplished a feat not seen in Major League Baseball since the beginning of the millenium, and the first of its kind in Phillies franchise history.

Brignac improves the Phillies bench immediately.
The Phillies have added infielder Reid Brignac to their Major League roster today following the demotion last night of Freddy Galvis. Brignac, 28, is a former four-time Baseball America Top 100 prospect and was having a very good year at Triple-A Lehigh Valley (.284/.357/.514 with 5 HR, 3 SB in 128 PA).
The Phillies have also promoted...

Utility infielder Reid Brignac, who played in 46 games for the New York Yankees and Colorado Rockies in 2013, agreed to a minor-league deal with the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday (as reported by CSN Philly’s Jim Salisbury). The deal comes with an invite to spring training.
The 27-year old was drafted by the Tampa Bay Rays in the 2004 amateur Draft, and spent five years in the...

The Phillies signed some bench competition, inking veteran utilityman Reid Brignac to a minor-league deal that includes an invite to Clearwater this spring.
Brignac, 27, had his best season as a major leaguer in 2010 with Tampa Bay, hitting .256 with 8 home runs and 45 knocked in. Since then, it’s been rather disastrous for Brignac as he’s been unable to stick with either the...
